Messages and information that comes to you gives you an opportunity to change your future direction. Those with health issues can especially find this a valuable time to look at information. Doing your own research to figure out natural, logical, smarter ways for better wellness heading forward is indicated now.
What are you working towards building for your future and what is the collective moving toward?
Planning and organization to manifest ideas into reality are especially indicated now. Look at what people are saying, doing and working toward to get a good indication of how the future will unfold. Patterns and themes of agendas and narratives pushing in a certain direction should be easier to spot now.
Thoughts and ideas are like magical seeds. We are reminded that when people focus their minds on something, it plants the seed to grow into becoming a reality. Practical ideas and actions make ideas manifest.
What is talked about and focused on repeatedly in the news, is the reality the news-makers intend to manifest as we head toward the future. We must also be aware of how Saturn in Aquarius is all about controlling the mind of the collective to manifest an intended result, and the media and social media information control tactics, followed by collective peer pressure is how it’s done.
Health and business topics discussed around this time will give us clues about the direction of the future. It is directors that direct and actors play the roles while the viewers are expected to applaud on cue when the applause sign lights up.
Food, grains, farming, and the environment can be expected topics at this time, as well as the economy, financial security and cyber security.

Mars enters Gemini August 20, 2022 at 3:57 am ET.
More aggressive topics, questions and responses are likely to be notable in the media. Talk of strategies to win are heard more frequently. Fast thinking and jumping to conclusions can require a slow down or pause before getting too aggressive. Words can bruise egos, offend easily or cause defensive retaliation so being extra cautious with what is said and the reactions that follow is recommended. We could hear lots of talk and gossip about war of course and strategic decisions for offense and defense is likely to heat up. Shortsighted, impulsive actions and reactions should be avoided in consideration for their long term consequences.
This could be quite an intense period of information exchanges as Mars will be in Gemini until March 25, 2023. That’s seven months! Increasing the length of his stay in Gemini, Mars will go Retrograde in Gemini from October 30th, 2022 to January 12th, 2023.
Mercury in Virgo is opposite Neptune in Pisces on August 21, 2022 at 3:40 am. This can indicate a lot of confusion especially how to define what a fact really is.
Just because someone makes a statement or a claim, it doesn’t mean it is true.
Anything that doesn’t really seem to make a lot of sense can be picked up easily. Trust your gut instinct to lead you to ask more questions to find out the real truth, especially where your intuition indicates deception or a lack of real information. Those that are deceptive could be intentionally vague and not really explain any real details, but rather could use flowery, broad terms that don’t really say much at all about the facts and figures. It’s easy to get drawn into false conclusions and ideas that aren’t backed by anything of substance, so it’s wise to be more of a sleuth to get to the bottom of things and dig up those hidden details. Whenever someone does something or says something but they don’t give a reasonable explanation, you can bet something is being held secret. A lot of mistrust is to be expected around this time.
Information is often hidden and not fully disclosed, such as in contracts, agreements, terms of service, medical consent, tricks with statistics, etc., so be extra attentive now as hidden data can be intentionally misleading. Misinformation and the beliefs formed from it, is likely to be on the radar now. Smarts are required to detect it.
